I don't really care too much whether or not Putin is a villain. Because worse case scenario our relations are like with WWII USSR. We have a worse common enemy, a Fascist dictatorship that puts a religious minority into a death camp again. I know Russia does officially have a positive relation with China but I think that's because they don't have a good option. I do believe that they are working against them more at a classified level.
